Are these the truth about men?

Question

hehe i just heard this song and I'm guessing if some of you guys think the same thing? Men and Women can answer... drop your opinion. This is just a little survey about MEN.

THE TRUTH ABOUT MEN- BY TRACY BYRD

We don't like to go out shoppin',

We don't care what's on sale.

We just want to sit with a bag full of chips,

Watchin' the NFL.

When you come over at half-time,

An' say: "Does this dress fit too tight?"

We just look you in the eye with a big fat lie,

An say:"Uh, uh: Looks just right."

Well, that's the truth about men.

Yeah, that's the truth about us.

We like to hunt and golf on our days off,

Scratch, an' spit, an cuss.

It don't matter what line we hand you,

When we come draggin' in.

We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry,

An' it's probably gonna happen again.

We hate watchin' "Steel Magnolias".

We like "Rambo" an' "Die Hard 4".

Jump up and down like fools when we see the new tools,

At the Home Depot store.

We don't really wanna take you to dinner,

At some fancy restaurant.

The only reason we do is 'cause we know it leads to,

The one thing that we all want.

Well, that's the truth about men.

Yeah, that's the truth about guys.

We'd rather play guitars and work on cars,

Than work on the problems in our lives.

An' though we might say it to you,

Every now and then,

We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry,

An' it's probably gonna happen again.

Well, if you want to know what we're all thinkin',

It's nothing too complex.

It's just somethin' cold for drinkin',

And a whole lot of s-e......

Yes, that's the truth about men.

Yeah, that's the truth about us.

We like to hunt and golf an' drive around, lost,

Scratch, an' spit, an' a whole lot of other disgustin' stuff.

It don't matter what line we hand you,

When we come a-crawlin' in.

We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry,

An' it's probably gonna happen again.

You know it, son.

Answer 1

Oh, man. This reminds me of that show- Blue Collar TV. Hahaha!

I'm not sure if it's true. I think many men might agree with a laugh.  

Answer 2

More "man-hater" rhetoric probably written by a bitter, fat, American, divorcee, woman, maybe a L*****n,  who made bad decisions early in life and now wants to blame all her problems on men in general.  

Are ya starting to see why so many foreigners rather go to Philippines?

Answer 3

Not really. As you know (and observe), most men are now Androgynous and Metrosexual. There are no clear-cut roles for men and women anymore.

I am a male and have lots of male friends who love to shop, don't want to watch and play sports, don't fall apart when new tools arrive, and enjoy fine dining. It all depends on the personality of the individual, not really on the gender. There's nothing wrong if a male person hates sports and loves reading chic lit, because the roles nowadays are now diffuse.

Answer 4

The song apparently was written by an American woman but the generalizations about men seem correct.  Remember, I say "generalization".

Answer 5

Could all be true, but they are not the whole truth.

Sometimes, we die for our home and country, too.  And lie forgotten in some patch that some other men may "spit an' a whole lot of other disgustin stuff" on, and we pay no mind, cause we're dead.

Answer 8

well,for me the s*x part is true,oh and the drinking,hmmm maybe the lying a little bit but only if it gets me the s*x!,lol

Answer 9

Hehehe - wish you could direct me to that song. Lot of it's true. My first wife (God bless her soul) thought that I hated to go shopping with her. I would have loved it if she spent more time in hardware and electronic supply stores. Of course that was in America. Over here they don't have electronics stores. Anyway, I love that song.

Answer 10

For a Filipino like me, just about half is true...

Answer 11

sounds a bit true... but who i am to judge?

If that were true of a man, what about this?

He is what a woman marries

with two hands and two feet

Sometimes with two women and

Never exists without a date.

Like Django or James Bond

He's made of the same material

But all have different ideologies

Some are fake, some are real.

He is a mass of diversity

Casually sorrounded by suspicion

And to form a fine partner out of him

Is a problem of civilization.

You'd need pray'r and diplomacy

Perseverance and lots of charity

Good grooming, food and tenderness

To temperize his obstinacy.

He is just a worm in the dust

he whistles along, wiggles around

And tires- till some naughty chic

Catches him from dashing aground...

no offense guys... lol

a friend gave ma a card with 'that' on it..

Answer 12

I say if the relationship is new, e.g newly married/new couples living together, men behave wonderfully-  those song  lines are only 10 %  true. However, if the relationship  gets boring and old,  and the men past their primes,  those lines of the song are  100 percent true.

Answer 13

Hahay...(sighs deeply)

Answer 14

uuuuhhhh if he's a total douche!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 15

We ain't wrong; we ain't sorry,---> yeah, right!
